S6 E33 The Honest Yoga Teacher - Building Authentic Community & Business with Courtenay Pipkin
Q: What made you realize you needed to be a little more authentic in the industry?
Courtenay describes recognizing a gap for supporting teachers in real-world experiences during COVID, choosing honesty over performative controversy, and building an engaged audience through candid, value-driven content rather than chasing sensational buzz.
S6 E43 Breaking Free from Business Anxiety with Oli Cooke
Q: What was your first experience getting clients and what lessons did you learn?
Early on I learned that posting in groups and offering lots of free educational content brought in sign-ups quickly, but it attracted people who weren't the right fit; I shifted to positioning more toward deeper transformation and tailored outcomes rather than broad education.
S6 E43 Breaking Free from Business Anxiety with Oli Cooke
Q: Can you walk through how you get to the subconscious beliefs that drive morning anxiety?
I use a multi-level approach combining rapid root level shifts, NLP, and rapid resolution therapy to identify and update the underlying beliefs, not just surface thoughts, so clients experience changes at a deep level that reduce morning anxiety.
S6 E34 From Soul Leaders to Shoot Locations - Suzie's Business Evolution
Q: Is the model passive until the first shoot happens, or is there ongoing coaching and support from the start?
There is ongoing coaching and active support early on; the business shifted away from a fully passive model to a blended approach where upfront coaching leads to a paid first shoot, after which additional services and a success fee are pursued.
S6 E34 From Soul Leaders to Shoot Locations - Suzie's Business Evolution
Q: So how did you guys go about getting your first clients, and how has that journey evolved?
Initial client momentum came from posting about shoots on Instagram and engaging directly with people who showed interest, followed by one-on-one conversations and a gradual shift to a paid, coaching-led model as the program matured.
